I have been a part of Hyde Park Elementary for the last few years. I have had the opportunity to work with almost the entire (and incredible) teaching staff, as well as a large number of our talented students. Teaching Kindergarten is my passion. It is also where I have spent most of my professional career. Our classroom is a bright space filled with creativity and exploration. Each day I strive to embrace the students and encourage them to be active participants in their own education. Every child brings with them a wealth of educational and cultural experiences in which I believe we can all learn from. When I am not at school I enjoy spending time in my garden, cooking, painting, raising chickens, camping, boating, and hiking. I look forward to the remainder of this school year and many years to come!
